How to Get Documents in Family Tree[edit | edit source]

There are many instances where it is desireable to enter a document as a Source in an individual's Details page in Family Tree. This is particularly true when the document establishes/verifies the name, date and place of a person's vital event (i.e. birth register/certificate).

While documents found in the Family Search digital databases can be easily attached as a Source to a person, (see FS "Attach ......"), often they are found on other websites (free or subscription) or found in the possession of a family member or other individual.
